To keep up with everything I've ever reviewed since the beginning I've produced a quick guide saying which Anime and Cartoons I've reviewed, a one line synopsis and now one line of good and bad.
Debutante Detective Corps
Five stupidly rich girls try and prevent their own kidnapping.
Had foundations of a potentially good series
The story they did show destroys itself in 25 minutes
Twin Signal
Bishounen fighting robot anime with impossibly long haired characters, lead robot can become chibi with a sneeze.
There's enough there to want more
What they chose to show doesn't do enough to keep anyone interested
Aoi House
What happens in an American Anime Society if it were a manga.
It never fell for the obvious tropes
It's indulgence in the medium is it's undoing
Jewel BEM Hunter Lime
Two Demons hunt down monstrous spirits of forgotten household objects.
It's unique
It's hard to take seriously
Little Snow Fairy Sugar
Sickeningly cute weather fairies make a young girl look weird.
Wholesome and safe like a warm blanket in winter
Too easy to predict
Medabots
Kids battle each other with overpowered toy robots.
Insanely awesome
Season 2 is dire
Riding Bean
A pro driver and a Gunsmith take down a gang who framed them for kidnapping.
Lots of fun
Too short
Gunsmith Cats
The Gunsmith from Riding Bean solves her own cases alongside an explosives expert.
Lots of fun
Again too short
Sakura Wars: Ecole De Paris OVA
The French Floral Assault Unit showing some stories not seen in game.
Decent showing for what is essentially cut video game scenes
Expensive hobby to piece together the full story
Bottle Fairy
Four Fairies learn about Japanese culture.
Adorable and Funny
Not for everyone
Wandaba Style
Mixed Genre Pop Band want to perform on the moon, their best hope is a boy scientist with a moe satelite.
Fun little retro comedy
I find it difficult to recommend to anyone younger than me
Kuragehime
A Jellyfish otaku and her otaku friends fight to save their apartment with the help of a rich transvestite.
Heartwarming and really gets you thinking about more than geek culture
It's overarching plot seems to change way too quick
Butt Attack Punisher Girl Gautaman
Girl who can catch swords with her butt fights for the freedom of religion.
I'm amazed this even exists
I'm horrified it exists
Assemble Insert
Stupidly strong pop idol stops a mad scientist from taking over the world using a skin tight power suit.

Shinesman
Power Rangers spoof with Office Workers.
Absolutely Hilarious
Wish it was longer
Pani Poni Dash
A Ten Year Old American Teacher takes on a class of weirdos in a show with Excel Saga style humour.
It does surprisingly well with it's characters
They use up their best jokes too quickly
Hyper Doll
Skimpy dressed alien super heroines fight Super Sentai monsters.
So bad it's good
Some of it's reference humour fails miserably
Elf Princess Rane
A tiny Elf who speaks gibberish tries to help an explorer find a certain magical artefact.
The effort this took to dub is impressive
Why does it exist?
Sonic OVA
Sonic fights Metal Sonic, many fans deny it exists.
It's not that bad
It's very meh
Okashina Futari
Brother and Sister can change each other’s genders; sister enjoys it more than the brother.
Needs its own anime
Probably never finish

Decent acting

Main character is great
Barely anything to make it standout
Jubei-Chan

Some great action and music
Dub is atrocious
Needless
Over the top post apocalypse scenario, everyone looks awesome.
Unashamedly awesome
Some anime have done better
Grenadier
Pacifist Gunwoman spreads her teachings using guns, smiles and boobs.
Surprisingly good
Fails to use the better stuff from the manga
Akikan
Soda Drink Cans turn into girls and fight each other to decide which drink can metal is better, steel or aluminium.
It's an idea that's never been done.
WTF Japan
Kyatto Ninden Teyandee

Still maintains a level of funny
But attempting the original makes it very Japanese compared to the western gag dub
Majikoi Oh Samurai Girls
Harem of battle ready warriors’ fight for the lead male’s affections while fighting an evil political group.

Fails to achieve what it set out to do
Happy Lesson
Troubled school student gets adopted by five hot female teachers.
Surprisingly Good Show

Surprisingly good
Precure used the plot better
Soul Eater

Rio Rainbow Gate

Colourful animation
Really dumb story

Kid in Taisho period Japan discovers Robot Maids who all love him.
It's not terrible
But it's also very generic of it's genre
Negima

The first half was stellar
Got bogged down by it's own lore
Negima Neo
Ten year old Welsh wizard and teacher, goes to Japan to teach a class of school girls, now with shiny colour.
Better told story cutting out the nonsense
Just missing the action
Aoi Sekai no Chuushin De
Video Game Console wars retold as an actual war with real people.
Better than you might think
Difficult to finish with the same mind set knowing what the current era is.
Chrono Crusade
Holy sister and her demon companion hunt down demons in 1920s New York.
Really emotional, so bring a tissue box
Failed to take advantage of it's lore
Excel Saga
Manga Artist lends his characters to different Anime Genres to see what works.
Hilarious
Heavily dated

It’s a Tanemura series, bring some tissues
It's really grim in context in some places

The ultimate in safe anime
Don't expect anymore than that

Lucky Star

Hate it if you wanted more

Three school girls get transported to another world and become Magic Knights.
Fantasy classic

Naruto
Ninja student with fox demon in his body goes through life following his ninja way.
Left a decent legacy

Pumpkin Scissors
Ex Anti Tank officer and a military rich girl fight to help those left broken by war.
Needs to be longer
It can be a little preachy
Uta Kata
Girl agrees to become a Magical Girl but some of the costumes make her evil.
Fine if you’re looking for a cosplay
God is this show weird
World God Only Knows
Dating Game expert forced to date real girls to collect free roaming souls from them.
Clever idea backed up by good story
Undermined by it's penchant to dedicate whole episodes to pointless drivel
Yatterman
Super hero uses robot animals to take out the original Team Rocket style villains.
Under valued as a series
The heroes can be hit and miss

I don't miss some of the plot

Certain references lost on audience

Plays things safe
Which is also it's weakness
Victorian Romance Emma

Cheesy as it sounds
The dub is awful

Dot Hack Quantum
Online game players end up in the wrong place at the wrong time causing them to fall into real life comas.
Intriguing design choice
Not for noobs

A group of school girls pilot tanks in battles of good sportsmanship.
It’s like World of Tanks in anime form
It's story seems pointless

At least the lead is not a loser
It’s really, really bad

This is the first and only Super Mario anime to be aired.
Fairly accurate to the game material

Kirby

Actually what you'd expect of a Kirby anime.

Fairy Tail
A wizard’s Guild causes mayhem in the name of righteousness.
Best Shonen anime outside Shonen Jump.

Good fight scenes.
Very scattered story and characters
Busou Shinki

Consistent with it's tone.
Not as memorable as the first season.

Even more wonderfully camp and not bad fight scenes
Lot of pointless cameos

Hasn't aged well

Confusing ending

Cleans up alot of the cheaper gags.

They actually avoid cliches
Comically missing the point

Bad even by harem standards

Gives you alot to talk about
Even if you don't agree with everything they say

Kei and Yuri protect a young psychic girl from being captured
Unique in design compared to other Dirty Pair media
Weakest of the three movies

The most authentic of the three features
A lot of investigation moments may not be appealing

The definition of wholesome
We get the joke of the main characters name, it needs not repeating
My Dress Up Darling
A doll maker designs cosplays for a gyaru
Definitive proof that the romance genre isn't dead
Hate how it begins

Cute as a school comedy
But not as a spinoff of Luck & Logic

Gets better the longer it runs
Even if season 1 is rough to get through
Azur Lane

They do romance really well
Everything else is stale

No good qualities
Outright terrible

Great setting
Very average story

Interesting setting
Not a great story
Dream Hunter Rem

A bizarre curiosity
Doesn't know what it wants to be
Cosmic Fantasy

Had potential
Wasted on tired plots and characters

Sexy and fun
Horribly treated in it's western release

Impressive art house project
Not designed for general viewing

Solid movie
But it looks like fanfic
Photo Kano

Well structured for a dating sim anime
Little bit of an acquired taste

Another batch of colourful idols take on another Pretty Series performance
Still as cute and colourful as ever
But it's become too corporate

Nothing ultimately gets finished

Can feel grown up with it's commentary
Don't expect everyone to get equal screentime

Nice to see some character development
Even if it's at the cost of a less exciting story
Yuri On Ice

Probably the best example of positive male characters

Little frustrated by how the romance goes
Quintessential Quintuplets
Guy has to tutor Quintuplets, it's a romance apparently
